Column Filter

The node offers 3 different filtering modes: manually, by name, and by type.
- manually you decide which columns to keep and which to leave out, through Add and Remove buttons.
- by name you decide which columns to keep based on their name through wildcards and Reg Ex.
- by type you decide the columns to keep based on their type, like all Strings or all Integers.

A more complex expression. Include rows that match the regularexpression (StateName has a string) AND whose population isless than 5,000,000. Notice that the rule is written on only one line. Include rows that match one of twoindependent expressions. Include rows that match a single, simple expression. AnyStateName value that matches the wildcard "North*" is assigned aTRUE value and passed through the node.
